Ride The Vines

History

Six years ago it was brought to our attention that due to the recent downturn in our economy, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of horses abused by their owners. These horses are often abandoned or just turned loose to fend for themselves, usually resulting in starvation and loss of life. Through the assistance of our local veterinarian we rehabilitated our first rescue of two horses -- Sierra, a badly injured horse and another horse named Caramel. Through local support and monies brought in by trail tours we have taken in a total of 43 horses. We have leased out a 20 acre ranch in Temecula Valley where these lovely horses can have the love they deserve and happily find a life's purpose again.

Specialties

Through your support we can continue to take in more of these amazing, beautiful animals. All proceeds are used for feed, medical care, and farrier services. Through natural horsemanship training we can recondition, rehabilitate and retrain these horses to live a healthy and productive life. Our experienced trainers will evaluate each and every horse and condition them for touring guests through the Temecula Valley's wine vineyards. Not every rescue horse will fit this program -- those that do not fit this program are released to carefully selected owners by a rigorous interview process.
